Sure, I have no problem with that.

I've created a script to do the nightly tarballs and I've created
Makefiles to publish the documentation whenever it is updated (this also
takes care of converting the LaTeX files into Postscript, PDF and HTML).
The only thing that would be required, I guess, would be to update the
news section every now and then and perhaps a new screenshot every so
often.

Once I've got the rudimentary Manuals done I'll go ahead and update the
Cliki.

Ok.  Well, I'm not well versed in either LaTeX or TexInfo (not at all in
TexInfo, actually), but I have written pieces of the Manuals in LaTeX
already so I'll continue with that for now.

Erik.
